Name: Laura McMillian
Interests, hobbies, obsessions, perseverations etc: Do you have any idea how many photographs are on my hard drive? I love studying faces. It's another one of those collecting habits, however, the primary one right now is web sites. I have multiple folders for different physiological subjects full of links (hormones, herbs, neurotransmitters, etc.). We'll see what the next collection type will be when I get sick of that. (Obviously, it won't be people because it takes a while for me to establish familiarity and comfort.) Previous ones have been crystals, geodes, pets, supplements, piercings, and books on very specific subjects. I'm very interested in the Neanderthal Theory of Autism, Asperger, and ADHD (http://www.rdos.net/eng/asperger.htm) as I am a curious Aspie. And I absolutely adore my hairless cat Maya.
Year of birth: 1980
Profession, area of study, etc: I'm studying for my Master's in psychology but I'm doing it online because I can't stand the social aspect of traditional college settings and need to do things on my own schedule. (Somehow, I got through all 4 years at Williams College! I'm also taking voice lessons to prepare for recording a demo of my own music.
Where you live in the world: West Hollywood, CA
Marital status, # of kids etc.: single, no kids
